Just Picked Up 1994 Runner

Will take better pictures when I get home. I got her for a steal has a lot of options like leather seats, sun roof, V6, etc. I am really excited to start modding. I want to lift it (body/suspension) before next summer.

To Do List:
- Power steering fluid leaks. So need to degrease it and find out where.

- Exhaust is pretty rotted so need to replace that. Any ideas on who would sell an entire kit from header back?

- Tune up, spark plugs (Champion possibly?), new plug wires, oil change, etc.

I came from Jeep Wrangler's so please excuse my dumbness. I definitely want to learn everything I can to keep this baby running well. Also, this is my project car:

www.downey-offroad.com sells some interesting things you might want to check out.

About the spark plugs, I would stick with Denso or NGK, there are many threads on this and other forums stating that OEM plugs, which are Denso I believe and NGK are the best plugs to put in the 4Runners.

Im also doing a full tune-up and I went with NGK V-Power plugs, NGK wire set and an NGK O2 Sensor.
Also Full Amsoil Synthetic lubricants for everything.
Some Redline "Water Wetter", which is a coolant additive to reduce the temperature slightly, not sure if it works really well but I thought id give it a shot.

Congrats on the new truck by the way.

What kind of lift were you thinking? 2" body with a 2" suspension lift? or more extreme than that?

That sounds about right. I am pretty tall 5'10" and I just wanted enough lift to clear 33-35" tires without rub when I flex. I would have no idea where to shop for that stuff so I will be looking around.
